'''General elections''' were held in [[India]] in 1996 to elect the members of the [[11th Lok Sabha]].The election produced a hung parliament with no single party having a clear majority. [[Bharatiya Janata Party]], the largest party, formed a short-lived government under the premiership of [[Atal Bihari Vajpayee]]. [[United Front (India)|United Front]] secured majority support resulting in [[H. D. Deve Gowda]] of [[Janata Dal]] succeeding Vajpayee and being the 11th [[Prime Minister of India]], before eventually being replaced by [[Inder Kumar Gujral|I. K. Gujral]], another United Front leader. Despite that, the country returned to the polls in 1998.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://hindi.eci.gov.in/files/file/4123-general-election-1996-vol-i-ii/// | title=Elections in Gujarat in 1996 }}</ref><br />
